The digital data from the ADCxxDJxx00RFEVM board is quickly and easily captured with the TSW14J57EVM 
data capture boards.

Note

The TSW14J57EVM cannot be used for JMODES that use 64b/66b encoding, or serial rates above 15 
Gbps.

The TSW14J57EVM captures the high-speed serial data, decodes the data, stores the data in memory, and then 
uploads it to a connected PC through a USB interface for analysis. The High-Speed Data Converter Pro (HSDC 
Pro) software on the PC communicates with the hardware and processes the data.

With proper hardware selection in the HSDC Pro software, the TSW14J57 device is automatically configured to 
support a wide range of operating speeds of the ADCxxDJxx00RFEVM, but the device may not cover the full 
operating range of the ADC device. Serial data rates of 15 Gbps down to 1 Gbps are supported.
